South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust, UK, adds Agfa VALORY™ Floor X-ray room to its CERU neuro rehabilitation unit

The South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust has purchased an Agfa Radiology Solutions VALORY™ Floor mounted X-ray room for its Leamington Spa Hospital. The new X-ray room was installed in January 2026, in the hospital’s Central England Rehabilitation Unit (CERU), which offers neuro rehabilitation to adults following brain injuries.

The VALORY™ Floor X-ray room was chosen for its convenient, compact size and high image quality. Agfa configured the room layout based on the limited space available, incorporating a wheeled, powered trolley for imaging patients with different levels of mobility.

 

Key highlights:

  • Efficiency and convenience in a future-proof design: The VALORY™ Floor’s efficient, modular design supports fast installation and long-term adaptability at the hospital’s own pace.
  • Flexible patient accessibility: The system installed at CERU includes a wall stand and a wheeled, powered trolley, to ensure patients of all mobilities can be imaged on a table.
  • Glass-free detector durability: Dura-line™ XF+ detectors offer low weight and high durability in the toughest conditions, and exquisite image quality at ultra-high resolution of 99-micron pixel pitch.
  • Powered by MUSICA®: All Agfa DR systems come with MUSICA®, which provides unparalleled image quality and continues to lead the way in automatic image processing.

“We chose to work with Agfa not only for their proven track record in delivering high-quality, cost-effective X-ray equipment, but also for their ability to design a bespoke room configuration. This tailored approach enables us to provide accessible imaging services for all patients at CERU and across the wider community,” says James Oughton, Plain Film Clinical Lead and MSK Reporting Radiographer, South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust.

“We are pleased that South Warwickshire University NHS Foundation Trust selected the VALORY™ Floor X-ray system for its Leamington Spa Hospital. The limited space available posed a particular challenge for the hospital. Thanks to the flexibility of the modular VALORY™ design, our team was able to configure a layout that maximizes the space, while ensuring that all patients, regardless of their level of mobility, have access to high-quality imaging,” says Joshua Akin-George, Sales Leader Europe North, Agfa Radiology Solutions.
